I'm a kandi kid myself and go to raves every weekend. I wear candy and lots of it, usually covering my whole arm. Reason why is I can give to other ravers, and trade. Giving and trading kandi represents a gester of friendship, and acceptance. It represents a gift of intimate friendship.
I love other kandi kids, we are among the most cheerful of all the people at the rave. We seem the most colorful and the most happy. We bring joy, and hapiness to everyone who sees us. We are the happy cheerful type.

I love Candy Kids - they are the nicest people you'll find. I'm not one myself, personally I can't bring myself to embrace the Candy side of it, but the rest of the culture rocks

There, I said it.

So something has to be wrong with someone if they don't dress and act like you and aren't into the same things you are?
Wow, thats helpful.

they choose to dress like social outcasts just so they can look "cool" for a few hours a week @ a party

Wow, you totally missed half the post, great job genius.
Hey all,
Out of my, damm I am getting old, decade + of clubbing I think "the kandi culture" was part of larger events and part of the 'rave peak'. IMO the "rave culture" was a part of the electonice music scene that hit the masses much faster than the other genres. Even at its peak I never remember seeing "kandi kids" at the underground house/techno clubs. Only at the larger warehouse events, or clubs that catered to the trance scene (And i think the culture is more American and Aussie orientated)
None the less they are a happy crowd and I prerfer them over the more "picky clubber crowd who are aa aaanot that tune, what shitty mixing8) 8) 8) "

When I first heard the term "candy kid", I thought that referred to somebody who ate a lot of E.
In Canada, there is an underground hhc scene with kandi kids. Events of 200 to 500 people, with hhc, makina, uk hardcore, freeform, hardstyle, ...
At some point, there were raves of that kind too regularly. The mood changed: people were less friendly and it was all about having the attitude.
Now, we don't see kandi partys every 2 weeks like we saw in 2005, but there are still a few every year. But kandi people are still welcomed in psytrance and underground trance events.

I read the whole post. Sorry didn't mean to imply you don't have a right to your opinion. I just don't understand why anyone would have a problem with candy kids. I was/am one. It's fun to dress up in wild colors and go out. I don't see anything wrong with it.
